Welcome to our Wednesday edition of the Card of the Day here at Pojo.com! I hope your week has been going well; if it hasn't, then maybe our review today could deal with those less desirable memories. Today we take a look at this memory eating parasite, Grudge Weaver, let's get started!

Name: Grudge Weaver
Civilization: Darkness
Type: Creature
Race: Brain Jacker
Level: 2
Power: 1000
Flavor Text: It finds memories delicious.
Rarity: Common
Set Number:   29/55 l 6DSI

Abilities:
 Blocker (You may tap this creature to change an enemy creature's attack to this creature.)
Guard (This creature can't attack.)
Brainbite- When this creature is banished, your opponent chooses and discards a card.

Grudge Weaver is your typical Blocker that also has the Guard ability, making it pointless to use for anything except blocking your opponent's creatures. Well, yes and no... Grudge Weaver is a Level 2 with only a measly 1000 power, so it will likely die to anything that it guards against; that's exactly what you want to happen!

Weaver has an ability called "Brainbite" which states that if he is banished in any way that your opponent has to discard a card from their hand. So if your opponent uses a card like Comet Missile, Bone Blades, Barrage, etc, you can expect to gain some advantage off of it. In rare circumstances, Weaver may be able to trade with a creature but it's doubtful that your opponent will give you that much of an advantage.

One really fun and cool combo you can do with Weaver involves using Ripper Reaper or a similar card that will banish one of your creatures. I've personally summoned a Ripper Reaper and banished Weaver and made my opponent lose a creature and a card in hand!

I think that this card has a lot of potential, especially early game when advantage can be crucial. I like to see this card as a Specter Claw with a free block attached. I know from experience that this card can give people headaches at times especially when using it in a mono-darkness deck that continues to recycle this card almost endlessly!

Ratings:

Constructed: 2.75/5.00 (This card won't be single-handedly winning you any games, however, it can create disruption and slow the pace of the game in your favor if used properly.)

Limited: 3.00/5.00 (This Blocker can disrupt your opponent's strategy and will keep them from attacking early game until they don't have a hand, then the game's afoot!)

Tomorrow we heat things up with a card that could find itself into rush decks; check back and see if you think that's a viable idea! Until next time my fellow Kaijudo Duel Masters, keep calm and game on!
